8 WENSUM ROAD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Stevenage local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The five 8 WENSUM ROAD sales between August 2000 and September 2017 have been plotted on the graph. A line has been extrapolated to show what the value of the property might have been over time, following each sale, had it maintained the same margin above or below the HPI (as a percentage). For example, the August 2017 sale was for 23% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 23% below the HPI over time, until the September 2017 sale, which was also at 23% below the HPI.

What might 8 WENSUM ROAD be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 16%, between September 2017 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Stevenage local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 16% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 8 WENSUM ROAD of £428,000 on 29th September 2017. For the value to have increased from £428,000 to £496,649 over the eight years and seven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
